Were you paid by Adobe to post your comments?



That is just plain scaremongering!

Yeah, because the Internet needs another closed protocol controlled by a commercial entity.

Your corporate overlords must be very satisfied with your brainwashing.
Do you have to pay for using Flash Player on your web browser?
NO!

Do I have to use Adobe tools to create Flash content?
NO!

Do you have to pay me if you want to see my website made in flash?
NO!

Are you paying some fees for using Flash portals like vimeo or yotube or playing flash games?
NO!

Are you likely to play above with better performance and less battery consumption?
Do I need to be more obvious here?

Wat's the point?

If I as flash developer will create open source project and release sources it means you cannot enjoy it for free?

If I as flash developer will decide to do some freelance job and get paid for that because I am living in real world that you have to pay your bills is something wrong that this source will be close and protected for my client only?

Back to this 4 years old not up-to-date table again and compare to java that was mainly using in mobile world. Today AS3 is far better, and wit Flash 10.1 will be more. You don't need to be brainwashed, Just a little bit open-minded to see the facts. I know it's seems to be hard for some people.

And you didn't mention about how many years java was closed format. Right?

again

Wat's the point?

The only point is the fricking distribution license but doesn't affect us developers and customers in terms of what we are doing.

And I don't understand why 2 companies Adobe and Nokia working together along with many others companies as part of Open Screen Project WITHOUT distribution restrictions because of above having this strategy.

If you don't like flash cool, it's your business, you can enjoy any other technology available for free. For me believe or not 10.1 means more possibilities and enjoyment that I would have on N900. It's noting to do with being Adobe funboy in this case.
